This final entry is the only one in the cycle that is not taken from a single Blake poem. Rather, the lines are cobbled together from several entries in Blake’s Songs of Innocence.
Every night and every morn
Some to Misery are Born
Every Night & every Morn
Some are Born to sweet delight
Some are born to sweet delight
Some are born to endless night
We are led to believe a lie
When we see not thro' the eye
Which was born in a night to perish in a night
When the soul slept in beams of light
God appears, and God is light
To those poor souls who dwell in night;
But does a human form display
To those who dwell in realms of day
Every Night and Every Morn was written by William Blake & Benjamin Britten.
Benjamin Britten released Every Night and Every Morn on Tue Jun 01 1965.
